Our previous article touched upon 5 things to consider when purchasing diesel generators .

 

The article was well received, but we thought we could provide more insight on things to look out for when purchasing a diesel genset. So here are 5 more things to consider when purchasing diesel generators.

 

1. Do you need Hot Wire or Pre-Installed Sockets?

The first consideration is whether you need 'Hot Wire' or 'Pre-Installed Sockets' with your power generator.

 

Generally, generators come with a hot wire option. In this process, the wires from the neutral, ground and the live terminal are taken to the switchboard which is connected to different appliances and devices that are required to be operated once the diesel generators are turned on.

 

Gogopower also provide the option to their customers if they want to pre-install the sockets on their diesel generator before it gets shipped to them at their location. Customer can confirm how many sockets he would require within the diesel generator.

 

2. Do you need to turn your diesel genset on and off while you are away?

The next consideration is whether you may need the ability to switch your diesel generator on and off while you are away from it.

 

Upon the request of the customers, Gogopower can install and configure an additional device within the diesel generator also known as DSE Webnet.

 

This device is extremely useful for the application of farming, agriculture and industrial solution. Especially when it becomes a hassle for the user to reach the location of their diesel generator.

 

3. Meeting certain application requirements?

Diesel Generators plays a very important role in the mining industry.

 

When the engineers and technicians are out there in field, they don’t usually have a reliable source of energy to fuel their operations and machinery. This is why diesel generators are extremely suitable as a means to power their machines and provide them with electricity to run their other devices.

 

The general assembly of the Gogopower Diesel Generators are aligned with the Australian standards such as frequency, voltage and wiring requirements.

 

If you are unsure what requirements are needed for you, feel free to ask one of our friendly staff who will let you know what you may need.

 

4. Do you need an Open Set or Closed Set?

Depending on what your needs are, you might need an open genset or a closed genset.

 

Most of our diesel generator comes within a fine selection of canopies to protect the diesel generator against the extreme weather and other pollutants in the air. Its design is much safer and secure when compared to open diesel generators. Also, the enclosed diesel generators are silent compared to the open set generators.

 

However, we understand our customer requirements based on their project needs. Therefore, there are customers who need open gensets for their projects, as it provides more flexibility for certain needs. This is an important consideration as it allows for you to have the generator set that best suits you.

 

On request we can provide customers with the open diesel generators to meet their requirements.
